Stories Of the Supernatural.

Mrs. Annie Dean Chopper, q vel,
known lady of Denver, who died sud.
denly in that city recently, had pre-.
dicted the exact time of her death
nearly a month before. Early in Feb.
ruary she had a dream in which
scenes at her death-bed and at the
burial were wildly pictured to her.
Her friends endeavored to laugh away
the unpleasant memory, but their ef.
forts were u~navailing and she refused
to believe that the dream was not a
presentiment of her approaching end,
She passed the remaining days of her
life in religious meditation, and in her
last hours charged her friends to ar.
range the funeral cermonies just as
they had appeared to her in the
dream. Her request was complied
with and every detail carried out as
she had particularly wished it, even
to the posture ofthe head in the coffin,
The wife OF a miner in Western Penn
sylvania dreamed one night recently
that her father appeared before her IN
the room and implOred forgiveness for
an act of unkindness in her childhood.
He then kissed her on the lips and de-
parted. She had not seen him for
years, and the dream impressed her
SO strongly that she set out the mex.
day for his home, in a distant part Of
the state. On entering the house she
learned that he was very i'll, and as
she reached his bedside he called out
family: Il am dying; won't you for.
give me?" and expired.
A thin, white ghost 0 fgigantic height
has been seen by many farmers who
live Just out of Brazil, Ind. 1t is usu.
ally encountered on the main road in
the evening, when it appears to be
striding rapidly along the town, but
one farmer met it face to face right be-
fore his own door. He threw a stone
at the spectre, but the missile passed
straight through its chest without APP
parent effect, and the man fled into
the house.
Jacob S. Schnarr, a farmer living
near Edna, Mo, hauled d load OF
wood to town one morning recently
and went into a grocery store to make
some purchases. Suddenly he sat
down and said to the crowd around
the store: Boys, l feel as il / wal
going to die before night" He was
laughed at, but as he started to drive
home later in the day he slipped from
the wagon beneath the horses hoofs
and his skull was crushed by the
frightened animals.
There is a hill q few miles from Cam
bridge, Ind, which is said by the
country folk about to be the nightly
meeting.place OF ghostly, supernatur.
al visitors, who indulge in wild and
uncanny antics. By day q man stand.
ing on the peak of the elevation a
hear a strange, rumbling noise, and at
times feel the earth shake perceptibly.
In the night time a thick haze settles
over the surface of the hill, through
which men say they have seen spectres
clad in shining white dance around
the peak uttering unearthly cries and
groans. Years ago a pioneer built Q
cabin on the hill and began to till the
land, but the strange sights and
sounds impelled him to abandon 1T,
and the house has since been unoccu-
pied.
